Province of Cebu - Archived News

Wars of ancient history were about possessions, territory, power, control, family, betrayal, lover's quarrel, politics and sometimes religion.

But we are in the Modern era and supposedly more educated and enlightened .

Think about this. Don't just brush off these questions.

  • Why is RELIGION still involved in WARS? Isn't religion supposed to be about PEACE?
  • Ask yourself; What religion always campaign to have its religious laws be accepted as government laws, always involved in wars and consistently causing WARS, yet insists that it's a religion of peace?

WHY??

There are only two kinds of people who teach tolerance:
  1. The Bullies. They want you to tolerate them so they can continue to maliciously deprive you. Do not believe these bullies teaching tolerance, saying that it’s the path to prevent hatred and prejudice.
  2. The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.

Talisay and Tuburan take home top spots

By Princess Dawn H. Felicitas (PDF)

THE Talisay City Central Elementary School and the Tinubdan sa Kauswagan Cultural Troupe of Tuburan successfully defended their titles yesterday during the Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Lalawigan.

Talisay bested six other contingents that joined yesterday’s competition in the elementary level, making it earn its first grand slam win.

Tuburan, for its part, had a back-to-back win after defeating three other contingents in the secondary division.

During yesterday’s activity held at the Cebu City Sports Center, Talisay showcased the discovery of the Holy Child Jesus, or Kaplag. Kaplag started right after Spanish solider Juan Camus found an image of the Holy Child enclosed in a box in the burned village of San Nicolas on April 28, 1565.

In their performance, the Talisay contingent started off with a huge backdrop of the razed village.

Symbolisms

Lady dancers in maroon gowns appeared together with men dressed as monks. They danced as the Gozos played.

A dancer playing Miguel Lopez de Legaspi carried the image of the Holy Child enclosed in a black box.

According to history, when the image of the Sto. Niño was discovered, it was turned over by Camus to Legaspi and then to five Augustinian friars.

The dresses of the lady dancers then turned to golden yellow gowns embellished with black laces, while the men wore black pants and golden yellow barong.

“The golden yellow represents the sunrise while the black embellishment represents doom because of the fire,” said Talisay’s choreographer Marvey Caño.

450th anniversary

To celebrate the discovery of the Sto. Niño, the dancers picked up the pace with a huge backdrop of different images of the Holy Child Jesus looming over them.

Caño said they came up with the concept since this year is the 450th anniversary of Kaplag.

Caño, who is thankful for their grand slam win, said their production cost between P2 and P3 million.

As for Tuburan, it showcased a “bamboo dance” since bamboos are abundant in the town, said the contingent’s choreographer Fernando Cabrillas.

Their dance routine, which cost P4 million to stage, showed them giving thanks to the Sto. Niño for the products that could be made out of bamboo.

Some dancers were on bamboo stilts, which drew loud cheers from the audience.

Other winners

For winning first place, Talisay and Tuburan earned P300,000 each.

Tuburan also won best in musicality (P50,000) and best in costume (P50,000) for the secondary division.

Other winners in the secondary were Carcar City Division (2nd, P150,000), Danao City (3rd, P100,000) and Cordova National High School (4th, P75,000).

The best in street dancing was earned by Carcar (P50,000), followed by Tuburan (P30,000) and Danao (P20,000).

For the elementary level, the other winners were Opao Elementary School of Mandaue City (2nd, P150,000), Bogo City (3rd, P100,000), Pundok Nagahonon of Naga City (4th, P75,000) and Tribu Kandaya, Maya Elementary School of Daanbantayan (5th, P50,000).

The best in musicality (P50,000) and best in costume (P50,000) went to Mandaue.

The best in street dancing was earned by Opao (P50,000), followed by Talisay (P30,000) and Pundok Nagahanon of Naga City (P20,000) Winners of yesterday’s Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Lalawigan automatically earned a slot for the Sinulog Grand Parade on Jan. 18.

Capitol to feature Pope Francis in float for Sinulog Grand Parade

By Michael Vencynth H. Braga / FPL (The Freeman)

CEBU, Philippines - The Cebu provincial government plans to feature Pope Francis along with the image of Sto. Niño on its float for this year’s Sinulog Grand Parade.

This would be the second time the Capitol will send its float to the grand parade since 2003.

Lawyer Ramil Abing, assistant provincial administrator, said the concept of the float submitted by the Provincial Information Office shows a Pope Francis’ standee, appears to be waving his right hand, and the icon of the Holy Child placed on the top of the float.

Abing explained that the ‘simple’ float would depict unity with the pontiff being one with the Cebuanos in times of calamities.

He, however, made it clear that design of the ‘Pope-themed’ float, including its total cost, is being finalized by the Provincial Engineering Office for the approval of Governor Hilario Davide III.

The last time the Capitol created a float was more than 10 years ago when it bagged second place during the Sinulog Grand Parade.

Last year, the provincial government’s float resembled rebuilding effort after super typhoon Yolanda wreaked havoc in northern Cebu in November 2013.

The Capitol will also send a dancing contingent composed of its employees. Abing said the theme is also in line with the papal visit.

The apostolic visit of Pope Francis this month aims to show sympathy to the victims of the devastating calamities like super typhoon Yolanda that ravaged Visayas areas in 2013.

Specifically, Pope Francis will visit Tacloban and offer Mass near Tacloban Airport. He will then visit the Archdiocese of Palo in Leyte where he will have lunch with the poor and survivors of natural calamities at the residence of the Archbishop of Palo. Cebu is not included in the Pope’s itinerary.

Meanwhile, dancing inmates of the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center will present to the media a preview of their dance for Pope Francis today.

In a TV 5 report yesterday, Vince Rosales, the choreographer, said the dance presentation will be uploaded on Youtube with a call and hope that the pontiff would still drop by the province.

Local officials, DENR 7 release marine turtle

By Justin K. Vestil

THE green sea turtle rescued by fishermen in the City of Naga last Monday was released to the sea by local government officials yesterday.

The sea turtle, believed to be 10 years old, was released in the waters off Takot Daku Marine Sanctuary, situated just a few kilometers away from Barangay Tinaan.

The green sea turtle was found last Monday by fisherman tangled in fishing nets on the shore in Barangay South Poblacion.

Biologists Rainier Manligro and Shelumiel Purisima of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) 7 inspected the turtle, measured and tagged it before it was released.

Officials from the city government of Naga and its local Bantay Dagat assisted the DENR during the release.

Eliza Navales of the City of Naga Agriculture Office said sea turtles come ashore during certain times of the year to lay eggs.

She said that last year, about 10 sea turtles were found by fishermen in coastal barangays.

She said local fisherfolk did not kill the marine creatures. They reported the sightings to the local government instead.

On New Year’s Day, fisherfolk found a 10-year-old olive ridley sea turtle in Barangay Tinaan. It was also tangled in fishing nets.

Sinulog kicks off tomorrow

By Jessa J. Agua with Mitchelle L. Palaubsanon, Jean Marvette A. Demecillo, Bryner L. Diaz / BRP (The Philippine Star)

CEBU, Philippines - The Sinulog activities formally open tomorrow, January 8, with a novena mass.

Opening the religious celebration leading to the feast day of the Holy Child will be the Walk with Jesus (penitential walk) from the Fuente Osmeña Circle to the Basilica Minore del Sto. Nino de Cebu at 4:30 a.m. on January 8.

Church officials urged devotees to bring their own rosaries, candles and images of the Holy Child.

Immediately following the procession is the Holy Mass inside the Basilica complex to be led by basilica rector Fr. Jonas Mejares.

The installation of the Hermano and Hermana Mayor will likewise be done during the Mass. Chosen as this year’s Hermano Mayor is Dr. Jose Enreque de las Peñas while his wife Jill, also a doctor, will be the Hermana Mayor.

Mejares explained that the two were chosen for being discreet and consistent devotees and benefactors of the Basilica and the Sr. Sto. Niño. Freeman ( Article MRec ), pagematch: 1, sectionmatch:

“First, the hermano and hermana mayors should be devotees of Sr. Sto. Niño. Second, they must possess the moral integrity. Then, admittedly, they must have the financial capability as they will lead the activities for the fiesta señor,” he said.

For someone to be a hermana or hermano, nominations via personal or third party can be done, but the final decision is made by the executive committee.

Mejares clarified that in the case of the De las Peñases, they did not volunteer as they were picked among potential candidates.

“It’s an honor. We are very blessed to be chosen. Dako kaayo nga responsibility but with God’s grace, we will do it. I just wish it were my mom because she was the original devotee who influenced us. We are a Cebuano family devotee. Daghan kaayong miracles nahitabo sa Cebu because Sto. Nino is with us. My humble prayer is for us to try our best to serve as hermano and hermana,” this year’s Hermano Mayor said.

After the mass that immediately follows the Walk with Jesus, succeeding novena masses inside the Basilica tomorrow will be celebrated by Fr. Adrian Mendoza (7 a.m.), Msgr. Renato Beltran Jr. (8:30 a.m.), Msgr. Esteban Binghay (10 a.m.), Fr. Leonardo Ellezar (11:30 a.m.), Fr. Arnulfo Castillo (1 p.m.), Msgr. Guillermo Gorre (2:30 p.m.), Fr. Francis Kalonsa Limbeye (4 p.m.), Fr. Mhar Balili (5:30 p.m.), and Fr. Alfredo Jubac (7 p.m.).

In lieu of the final song during the last novena of the day, a short traditional Sinulog will be done for the novena masses.

Mejares assured that a grand reenactment of the first mass and the baptism of Rajah Humabon and Reyna Juana in Cebu will be witnessed as production experts and choreographers were tapped to help conceptualize it.

“It will involve renowned choreographers and we will have multiple locations. San Diego Dancers will be performing before flying to Manila for the Papal mass where they will perform the Sinulog there,” he said.

Traslacion, the journey of the Sto. Nino and Our Lady of the Guadalupe images from the Basilica to the National Shrine of St. Joseph in Mandaue City, will be done January 16.

Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama will escort the images and turn over them over to Mandaue City Mayor Jonas Cortes as they meet at the boundary of barangays Mabolo and Subangdaku.

After the vigil in Mandaue, the foot procession from St. Joseph precedes the fluvial procession from Ouano Wharf back to Cebu City.

Due to the road concreting works in V. Rama Avenue, the north route of

the January 17 solemn foot procession will be used. From the Basilica, the procession will take Osmeña Boulevard, turn right at Fuente Osmeña to General Maxilom Avenue, turn right at Imus Road before heading for M.J. Cuenco, Plaza Independencia, Osmeña Boulevard before going back to the basilica.

As added security measure, instead of metal railings, ropes will be used to cordon the aisle along the Pilgrim Center inside the basilica complex.

For the entire duration of the novena mass leading to the Fiesta Senor, the Basilica Church will be open 24 hours. However, Mejares urged devotees to understand the organizers and heed their advice if they say that the complex has reached its maximum capacity so that untoward incidents such as a stampede will be avoided.

‘Plan B’ ready

The Sinulog Foundation Inc. is closely coordinating with the local church officials on the possibility that Pope Francis may visit in Cebu either on January 15 or 16.

Although Cebu is not in the official itinerary of the Pope, who will visit in the Philippines from January 15 to 19, SFI chairman Ricky Ballesteros they are preparing a “Plan B”.

“Yes, we are preparing a Plan B in case moanhi gyud ang Pope sa Cebu. We are coordinating with the church officials, traffic officials and the Philippine

National Police,” said Ballesteros, during the Association of Government Information Officers Forum yesterday.

In case the Pope will proceed to Cebu via helicopter from his visit in Tacloban, Leyte on January 16, the South Reclamation Project is being readied as a landing site.

Earlier, Cebu Archbishop Jose Palma said that Pope Francis is a Pope of many surprises and it is not impossible that the later will visit Cebu.

Sinulog, touted as the grandest and the biggest festival in the Philippines, will have its grand parade on January 18 where a total of P25 million in prizes await winners.

Ballesteros said that they still expect million spectators during the grand parade.

Ballesteros added that the Sinulog celebration complements the Pope’s visit.

“The Pope is spontaneous. Sinulog symbolizes Christian faith in Cebu. The Sinulog is both a religious and cultural event. Sinulog is a celebration of faith. Who knows, moanhi ang Pope,” Ballesteros added.

Ballesteros also said this year’s Sinulog, which is now on its 35th year, will have many “firsts” such as the 1,000 performers in the grand finale prior to the grand fireworks display.

“We have lots of surprises. This year’s Sinulog is something to look forward to,” said Ballesteros.

airport ready for Sinulog

The Mactan Cebu International Airport is beefing up its security and safety measures amidst the influx of passengers here for the Sinulog celebration.

Estee Marie Plunket, head of Corporate Affairs, GMR-Megawide Cebu Airport Corp., said yesterday that they are likewise putting up more information desks or customer service desks for the convenience of the passengers.

“Gidugangan namo ang information desks in strategic places sa airport para gyud matubag ang pangutana sa atong mga passengers. In fact, one can even ask where they should put their skateboards, places to go, among others,” said Plunket during the same forum yesterday.

Plunket said that they want passengers to experience comfort and convenience the moment they arrive in Cebu.

Crowd control

The Armed Forces of the Philippines-Central Command will be tasked to control the crowd during the fluvial and foot procession on January 17 as well as the carousel route during the feast day a CentCom official said.

CentCom spokesman Lieutenant Commander Jim Alagao, said that since last November the SFI has been coordinating with them for the Sinulog festivities.

He said 7,300 personnel will be deployed for the Sinulog which will be composed of two task units forming Joint Task Group Sinulog.

Task Unit Sto. Niño, will control the crowd during the fluvial procession and the foot procession in the afternoon while Task Unit Grand Parade will be tasked with crowd control of the carousel route.

These personnel will be composed of soldiers and Reserve Officers Training Corp cadets, their food will be provided by SFI, said Alagao.

The Cebu Provincial Police Office will also beef up their security preparations for the Sinulog festival, although the festivities are focused on Cebu City.

Superintendent Rodolfo Albotra, Provincial Intelligence Branch, said that it has been a practice in the province that they will increase security every Sinulog.

He added that the provincial headquarters will send a directive to the police stations to intensify their presence and to conduct aggressive checkpoints in their respective areas.

“We’ll be sending directive to all station to conduct target hardening measures and to increase police visibilities in all establishments in their respective areas of responsibility and to discourage would-be criminals nga mo-strike sa ilang area,” Albotra said.

Albotra said that Cebu province serves a “buffer zone” of the city and some of criminals might pass here or establish a base here on their way to the city.

Cebu Capitol to grant PhP1-M aid to Sinulog 2015

(PNA), SCS/EB/

CEBU CITY, Jan. 6 (PNA) -- The Cebu provincial government has pledged PhP1-million cash assistance to the Sinulog Foundation Inc. (SFI) to help defray expenses for this year’s celebration.

The Sinulog Grand Parade, which organizers said will be the biggest and grandest ever, is set on Sunday, Jan. 18.

The backdrop of the main stage alone, which will depict the 450th year of "Kaplag" or the discovery of the historical and miraculous image of the Santo Niño,costs PhP2.5 million, organizers said.

Cebu Gov. Hilario Davide III said the assistance has yet to be released to SFI but he has already informed SFI Executive Director Ricky Ballesteros and other officials about the pledge during a meeting.

“Mr. Ballesteros and some members of the foundation were here and reiterated their request. But there’s no official communication yet,” he said.

The SFI has been receiving cash assistance from Cebu Capitol with PhP500,000 as the least amount given.

In 2013, Capitol decided to extend only PhP500,000 to SFI due to "financial constraints" experienced by the province at that time.

Last year, the amount was increased to PhP1 million.

The SFI, however, has yet to claim the PhP1.5 million total amount from 2013 and 2014.

The collection was hampered by SFI’s failure to get re-accreditation from the Cebu Provincial Board (PB) because the number of the SFI members present during the accreditation proceedings did not meet the requirement under accreditation rules.

The PB finally renewed the foundation’s accreditation in November last year.

The Cebu City government is the biggest contributor to the SFI with an allocation of at least PhP25 million this year.

DENR-7 OKs cave management plans

By Jessa J. Agua / FPL (The Freeman)

CEBU, Philippines - To ensure sustainability and protection against exploitation, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-7 has approved management plans for four caves in the region.

The regional environment agency through the Protected Area Wildlife Coastal Zone Management Services recently approved the management plans for the caves in Cebu and Negros Oriental provinces.

DENR-7 Executive Director Isabelo R. Montejo signed the approval of the cave management plans for Budoy Cave, Kulabyawan Cave in Argao, Cebu, White Cave in Minglanilla, Cebu and Crystal Cave in Negros Oriental. The plans are set to be implemented soon as possible.

“Cave management plan is a very essential tool that can help the DENR and local government units concerned in the protection and conservation of our caves as mandated under Republic Act 9072 otherwise known as the National Caves and Cave Resources Management and Protection Act,” said Montejo in a statement.

As mandated by law, the DENR is tasked to formulate, develop and implement a national program for the management, protection and conservation of caves and cave resources, with the cave coordinating agencies like the National Museum, National Historical Institute, the Department of Tourism and Local Government Units concerned.

Caves are considered natural and non-renewable resources with important scientific, economic, educational, cultural, historical, and aesthetic values. They are also home to specialized mineral formations with unique and diverse flora and fauna.

“In line with the DENR’s priority program, more caves in region is set to be explored responsively, assessed and classified in terms of its diversity, significance and vulnerability for better understanding on how to properly and effectively protect, conserve and preserve these natural resources that we have with the help and partnership with our local government units,” Montejo added.

Mandaue workers to get additional P20T bonus

(RSB)

ABOUT 700 regular employees of Mandaue City Hall are set to receive P20,000 each next week.

Payroll is being prepared for the giving of Performance Enhancement Incentives (PEI) after the City Council approved last Dec. 29 an ordinance granting the incentives.

The ordinance, sponsored by Councilor Diosdado Suico, authorized the release of P10 million from the City’s savings.

Suico also sponsored another ordinance realigning P5 million for the PEI, which is on top of the 14th month pay employees received last month.

Regular employees received P10,000 or equivalent to their monthly salary, while job-order employees received P5,000. Clean and Green workers and barangay nutritionists were also given P3,000.

In an earlier interview, City Treasurer Regal Oliva said non-regular employees will not receive PEI after the Commission on Audit asked the City to return the amount it gave to job-order employees in previous years.

Last Dec. 2, the Department of Budget and Management released a memorandum circular setting the guidelines for the granting of PEI.

Under the circular, local government units can set the amount of PEI depending on their financial capability, provided it does not exceed the limit set on personal services.

Appropriation for personal services must not exceed 45 percent of the local government’s annual income from regular sources.

Last month, the City also gave senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs) their year-end cash assistance.

Each of the City’s about 15,000 elderly residents registered with the Office of the Senior Citizens Affairs received P1,500, while over 2,500 PWDs received P500 each.

The City increased its cash aid for senior citizens last year from P2,000 to P3,000. The assistance was given in two tranches.

CCCI plans PPP, funding seminar to help Cebu’s LGUs grow better

By Jeandie O. Galolo

NOTING the importance of public-private partnership in development, the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) will come up with a PPP seminar within the first quarter of the year, announced an official.

CCCI President Maria Teresa Chan said they will invite officials from different local government units (LGUs) in Cebu, so they can learn more about the mechanics of obtaining funds from the private sector.

“Right now, we have so many government officials who think they can do better for their constituents, but sometimes they are constrained by established rules and regulations of the government,” Chan said.

In partnership with the National Economic and Development Authority 7, Chan said, LGUs will be given a venue to familiarize themselves with acquiring funding and other PPP issues.

Last year, CCCI and Neda also conducted a PPP seminar, but not all LGUs were able to attend, according to Chan.

Infrastructure development, she said, is the way to accelerate growth.

Approved projects

Meanwhile, in a separate meeting, Neda 7 Director Efren Carreon said there were four Regional Development Council (RDC) infrastructure projects that were approved by the Neda Board.

These are the P10.9-billion Bus Rapid Transit in Cebu City, which will be funded by World Bank’s Clean Technology Fund and French Development Assistance; the P17.52-billion upgrading of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport by private proponents Megawide-GMR consortium; the P7.2-billion New Bohol Airport, whose funds will be sourced from a concessional loan from the Japan International Cooperation Agency; and the government-funded P653-million upgrading of the Malinao Dam in Pilar, Bohol.

Other major projects in the pipeline, according to Carreon, include the P2.2-billion Gov. Gallares Hospital modernization project in Bohol, the Cebu International Container Port and redevelopment of the Cebu Base Port, with an estimated cost of P10 billion, the third bridge project that will connect Cebu City and Cordova, the upgrading of Dumaguete City Airport, and other JICA-funded projects of the Mega Cebu initiative.

For this year, the target growth rate for Central Visayas’s gross regional domestic product (GRDP) is 9.7 to 11.9 percent.

The latest data from Neda 7 showed that the region’s GRDP for 2013 grew at 7.4 percent, ranking sixth among all regions. Data for 2014, according to Carreon, will come out in July.

For 2016, Central Visayas’ GRDP is projected to grow by 10.1 to 12.5 percent.

Air conditioned terminal in 2015

By Michael Vencynth H. Braga, JMO (The Freeman)

CEBU, Philippines - Passengers bound for the south of Cebu may be looking at a more comfortable Cebu South Bus Terminal.

Provincial Engineer Hector Jamora has announced that the terminal’s waiting area will be fully air-conditioned this year following complaints that it becomes too uncomfortable to stay there while waiting for buses when it becomes crowded with passengers especially during peak seasons.

In fact, in order to allow air to circulate, the terminal management opted to remove the glass windows at the waiting area.

Conversion of electrical requirements of the terminal from single-phase to three-phase will also be implemented soon.

Eddie Dusaban, the terminal’s acting operations manager, explained earlier that the air conditioning unit, which was installed at the waiting area, malfunctioned due to the current phase.

At the same time, retrofitting works and other repairs on damages to the structure brought by the 2013 earthquake that jolted Cebu and Bohol are on “the wind-up phase.”

The upgrading of the terminal’s electrical requirements is seen to guarantee commuters a more comfortable environment while waiting for buses, the information office added.

Jone Siegfred Sepe, head of the Provincial General Services Office, said the province will do its best to implement the upgrade before the Lenten season. He said the project has already been bid out and is waiting for the awarding of the contract.

The Provincial Information Office said a P7.2 million budget has been set aside for the upgrade.

The Capitol has also procured 12 tents to shelter waiting passengers especially during peak seasons.

“Mipalit na lang gyud ta aron di na ta mag-abang-abang,” Sepe said.
